Report: Jonbenet Evidence Missing

BOULDER, COLORADO — Authorities reportedly have lost evidence in the murder investigation of JonBenet Ramsey, forcing them to retrace their steps.

Detectives have told friends of the Ramseys they no longer have evidence from some interviews and palm prints that the friends had given earlier, the Rocky Mountain News reported Sunday.

In one case, evidence from two interviews conducted the day after the 6-year-old's body was found Dec. 26, 1996, was missing just two weeks later, sources told the News. The paper did not specify whether the lost evidence was tapes or written notes from the interviews.

Four sources told the News that they were asked to resubmit to evidence testing and interviews.
